Sim Hotel Istanbul Old City, Istanbul

The hotel was located near main metro and bus stations, making it very flexible for travelers. The rooms were small with no view, not as depicted in the photos, and not very clean.

The central location was fit for purpose but in a busy and sometimes noisy area with a mixed reputation. The dining options were limited, but for the price, it was acceptable. Overall, the facilities were satisfactory with room for improvement.

The location, despite being central and near transport stations, was a bit off and had a somewhat negative reputation. The dining options were limited and not very satisfactory.
